摘要
A power density of over 1.4 W cm(-2) at 0.7 V was achieved at 750 degrees C for an anode-supported YSZ thin electrolyte fuel cell with a dense Sm0.2Ce0.8O1.9 (SDC) interlayer fabricated by pulsed laser deposition, while the cell with a conventional porous SDC interlayer exhibited only 0.8 W cm(-2) at this voltage. The dense SDC interlayer significantly reduced the ohmic resistance of the fuel cell. For example, at 750 degrees C, the ohmic resistance of the fuel cell with a dense SDC interlayer was 0.08 Omega cm(2); while that of the cell with a porous SDC interlayer fabricated by conventional screen-printing was 0.16 Omega cm(2). The pronounced reduction in ohmic resistance might be due to the fully dense structure and thus improved electrical conductivity of the SDC interlayer, increased contact area at the interface between the dense SDC interlayer and the YSZ electrolyte. and suppressed Zr migration into the SDC interlayer.
